Farmer Josef Unglert has experienced a lot because of his sheep, which is not nice.
But what happened last Monday shocked him particularly.
Puchheim – Young people jumped around on the animals and fatally injured two.
"I just don't get it.
What fun is that supposed to be?
The animals are completely innocent,” says Unglert.
The Puchheim farmer is currently busy harvesting day and night.
This was also the case at the beginning of the week, when he suddenly received a message around 10 p.m.: Something was going on with his sheep in the field between Puchheim, Eichenau and Olching.
The area is actually quite lonely, only two houses are nearby.

The neighbors became aware because the otherwise so quiet animals suddenly made loud, panicked noises.
"They observed four young people," reports Unglert.
They had entered the enclosure and jumped on the animals at full speed.
Unglert then sent the apprentice at his court out to check on things.
That was around 11 p.m.
But it was already too late.
No sign of the culprits.
And unfortunately not of the bad consequences, because a search with a flashlight would have panicked the already disturbed animals even more.

Only in the morning could the farmer see that two sheep were very badly injured.
One leg just dangled down.
One suffered serious internal injuries.
"The animals had to suffer the whole night," Unglert says indignantly.
Rescue was no longer possible.
After consultation with the veterinarian, the sheep finally had to be redeemed.
Due to the stress of the harvest, Josef Unglert had not yet had time to report the incident to the police on Thursday.
But he still wanted to do that.
Sheep tortured to death: the owner from Puchheim is stunned
Unfortunately, he already has a certain routine in it.
Last year some of his sheep had their heads cut off and placed in a bush.
In addition, there were always problems with vandalism.
The fence of the herd was destroyed.
"After it was in the newspaper, it was quiet," says the farmer.
He's hoping for the same this time.
It is not so much the economic damage that annoys him as much as the fact that it is so pointless.
It just stunned him how one could treat living beings so disrespectfully.
